Confidential opportunity to acquire a long-established residential behavioral health and education platform located in the Mountain West.
Operating for more than 25 years, the organization provides structured residential treatment, behavioral health services, substance-use programming, and accredited secondary education for adolescent clients.
The business serves families and referral partners from multiple states and has developed longstanding relationships across private-pay, insurance, school district, professional referral, tribal, and national benefit channels.
The operation is supported by an experienced management, clinical, administrative, and educational team that is expected to remain following the transaction. The platform maintains established state licensing and recognized clinical and educational accreditations, providing a significant operational foundation for a qualified new owner.
A particularly attractive component of this opportunity is the significant unused capacity within the existing operation. Current enrollment remains below historical operating levels, providing a new owner with an identifiable path to growth through expanded business development, referral outreach, digital marketing, and improved inquiry conversion—all while utilizing infrastructure already in place.
The transaction also includes owned real estate supporting the operation, creating an opportunity to acquire both an established operating company and the underlying facilities.
This opportunity may be particularly well suited for an existing behavioral health operator seeking expansion, an experienced healthcare entrepreneur, or an investment group looking for an established platform with management continuity and additional growth potential.
Detailed financial information, operating history, facility information, and the complete Confidential Business Review will be provided to qualified buyers following execution of a confidentiality agreement.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 28
- Employees
- 40 (36 Full-time, 4 Contractors)
- Facilities & Assets
- The transaction includes **two owned properties** that support the residential treatment and accredited educational operations. The facilities provide established infrastructure for residential care, clinical services, classrooms, administration, and youth programming. The real estate is valued at approximately **$2.6 million** and is included in the total asking price, providing the buyer with both the operating business and the underlying real estate.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The company operates in the specialized adolescent residential behavioral health and education market, serving families and referral partners regionally and nationwide. With more than 25 years of operating history, it differentiates itself through an integrated residential treatment and accredited education model, experienced management and clinical teams, established referral relationships, and multiple revenue channels. Admissions are generated through private-pay families, insurance, school districts, education consultants, professional referrals, tribal relationships, and national benefit programs. The business historically operated at a census of 50–70+ residents versus approximately 30–36 today, creating substantial existing capacity for growth. Management believes renewed business development, stronger referral outreach, digital marketing, and improved inquiry conversion can significantly increase enrollment without requiring a new operating platform.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The current ownership team is already taking steps to restore enrollment toward historical operating levels, creating momentum that a new owner can continue and accelerate. The business historically operated at **50–70+ residents**, compared with approximately **30–36 currently**, demonstrating significant available capacity within the existing platform. There is no apparent reason the operation could not support approximately **60 students**, consistent with its historical census. Growth opportunities include strengthening relationships with education consultants, school districts and professional referral sources, expanding national outreach, increasing digital marketing, and improving inquiry conversion. Importantly, much of this growth can occur using the **existing facilities, experienced management team, licensing, accreditation, and operational infrastructure**, allowing a buyer to focus on increasing enrollment rather than rebuilding the organization.
